Using files on a high traffic site is going to kill the site. To me it's pretty pointless. You have to open the file, write, then close the file and when its open its locked typically which means everything else is queued. If you have multiple files open you can run into issues with the operating system itself as well , which can cause the script to crash. Why not just use a DB and make life easier.
